The chronicle show that I was interviewed for will be shown a week from today -- Thursday June 14th @ 7:30pm. It's on Channel 5 here in the Boston area.
I was interviewed, and I showed my aero-modded Scion xA, I drove it; and I showed my CarBEN EV5 open source design as well. They were here for over two hours, and took probably an hour of video, so most of it won't make it into the show.

Our show on alternative fuels/hypermiling, etc is slated for next Thursday, the 14th. The show will be posted on our website the following day...but just for ONE DAY. You can bookmark the video link for each segment, though, and you will have access for ever and ever. Feel free to post on websites, and share w family, friends, and Hollywood talent agents.
That's Ch 5 at 7:30. But you knew that... 
Big thanks to all!
Cheers,
Clint

The full show (~1/2 hour) will be online for 24 hours following the broadcast; and then the separate segments will be online indefinitely.

Glad you enjoyed it! It really was fun to do. They covered things pretty well; I only would have included a few additional details about things like pumping up your tires and using the engine to slow down, and the like.
